by
Mahalia Jackson
Although it's missing some of her classic performances, the double-disc set Gospels, Spirituals & Hymns is nonetheless an excellent introduction to Mahalia Jackson, arguably the greatest gospel singer of all time. The box set features 36 performances she recorded for Columbia between 1954 and 1969, offering a comprehensive, but by no means ...

Mahalia Jackson
Mahalia Jackson rewrote the rules for singing gospel in the late '40s by bringing blues phrasing and other secular elements into sacred song, and with her powerful alto, she sang with an immediacy and conviction that are still startling when they break out of the speakers some 30 years after her death. This two-disc set collects tracks from ...

How do you describe this one? Take an old guy who lives in a nursing home in Boston and likes to sing, pop a 90-minute tape into your hand-held cassette recorder, and challenge him to sing for 45 minutes continuously. The result is an unedited, rambling, often incoherent 129 medley that takes in the first half century of American popular song. To ...
